Farmhouse with Pond

Samuel David Colkett 1806 - 1863

Summary

A rural landscape, with a thatched cottage farmhouse amongst the trees to the left, small pond with ducks in the foreground. Two children with a dog walk along the central pathway leading to the cottage, and a wide field lies to their right. A tree with orange leaves is in the centre of the composition, balancing the two sides of the painting, whereas the wood behind it consists of green-leaved trees.
